Problems creating PAL DVD containging clips with Encore CS5

Hi,
I was asked to create a menu for a DVD containing several movie clips which are mostly .FLVs and then some .AVIs. Though I'm complete new at all this DVD creating thing I got a nice working menu but when I built the DVD (which took about 45 mins) I got an error stating something about "no mpeg movie". The disk was burnt anayway (no way I could prevent that) but it doesn't work either on my pc or the DVD player.
Do I have to convert the clips before importing them into Encore? and if so, which software can i use for that? I have only limited internet access at the moment so I cant research the whole WWW for a solution. Therefore sorry for bothering you with such newbie stuff
anyway... thx for answers
M.
Oh, I'm using Productive Suite CS5 (english version on Win 7)

Depending on what is inside that AVI (see below) you should have no problems with Encore transcoding the AVI into the MPEG2/VOB format used on a DVD
I don't use FLV so have no idea if it will work with Encore (see further below)

  • Problems Creating a Blu-ray Disc with a Main (Static) Menu and Pop-up Menus

    I'm having problems creating a simple Blu-ray disc containing a Main Menu (Static Menu with a graphic for my background) and a single Pop-up menu assigned to all of my timelines.  I wouldn't think this would be so hard to create but every attempt I've made ends up with the navigation getting all messed up to the point that my Playstation 3 doesn't even recognize that the disc as being Blu-rey disc.
    I want a simply static Main menu containing a "Play all" Button, and a button for each additional timelines.  Im also using the override commands on my buttons so if someone just chooses to see one specific clip from the main menu, they will be taken back to the main Menu after their selected clip plays.  But then I also want a Pop-up menu assigned to the timelines so the viewer can switch to a different clip (timeline) without having to go back to the Main (static) menu.
    My Blu-ray Disc runs just fine if I only use a static menu in a project, or if I only use a single Pop-up menu assigned to each timeline, but not both a Static Main menu, and pop-up menus.  I'm using CS4
    Thanks.

    it's just copying files to it, not video.  If you put a blank blu-ray disk in the drive, it may show up in the finder.  A program like Toast can burn a blu-ray.

  • Help for Creating PAL DVD

    I have NTSC footage that I edited on Final Cut Pro HD and now I need to create a PAL DVD. I did it before using the same footage, same Final Cut program, but that was a few months ago and I forgot what format I chose on Compressor to export (if it was Compressor) The only options I see on Compressor for PAL are MP4-which I thought was for the web.
    Thanks!

  • How do I create a DVD from iMovie with menus? What iDVD use to do!

    iDVD has disappeared on my new MacBook Pro, so how do I create a DVD with menus and everything?

    Hi
    You can not do that - without any DVD authoring software as iDVD.
    So either
    • Treat to return Your new Mac (within 14 days) if Apple doesn't give You iDVD
    • Buy a second handed iLife'09 (pref as You then get all Themes - not so in iLife'11 - AND - after program-up-date they will be the same version anyway)
    • Buy another DVD-authoring software as Roxio Toast™ (costs a bit - contanin lot's of other things too - that was of great value to me (not so to everyone)
    • Use the free (and very simple/basic) BURN™ - as You at least can get Your Movie onto a Playable DVD
    If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
    Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
    • iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
    • DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
    • Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
    • Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
    Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
    only You can buy from Apple is
    • FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
    AppleMan1958
    You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

  • How to make a Basic BD with Encore CS5

    Are there any basic tutorials around that will step one through how to create a basic BD dvd with a simple menu in Encore CS5.  For the most part I've been using Nero 9/10 to create DVD's and BD discs, and it works well with Premiere but for H.264 files Nero always wants to transcode things when it doesn't need to (seems to work fine on MPEG-2 without transcode but it gets confused about H.264 files).  I notice in my clumsy attempts to make something out of Encore, it is very intelligent about what it does and does not need to transcode, even with H.264 files.
    The problem is the interface in Encore is very confusing to me, and I can't really figure out what I'm doing.  Is there somewhere on the web that basically steps you through the process of creating a very simple DVD/BD disc with SIMPLE menus using Encore?
    I think if I could get started it would all begin to make sense, but right now it just seems confusing.  Does the timeline represent the titles on the disc in a basic setup, for example?  Basically I don't understand much about Encore at all and I'm finding it very unintuitive to me.

  • PrCS5.5: what are the setting to produce a Blu-Ray disk with Encore CS5

    what are the setting for a sequence, media encoder, & Encore to produce a Blue-Ray disk.
    At present , I have tried several different combinations, but Encore just hinges

    sorry  i forgot the link...
    http://www.precomposed.com/tutorials/04_bluray_subtitles/
    at the end of tutorial , you find instructions for create a right iso image.
    Another thing. If you go to create a DVD Dual layer, Imgburn offers a excelent tool to set layer break. I prefer this option,and not Encore automatic option.

  • Possible to create medium res .pdf file with InDesign CS5?

    Hello,
    Can anyone tell me if there is a way to create a medium res .pdf file with InDesign CS5?
    I'm working with a client and have been sending him both high res and low res files of a catalog project. High res .pdf is 12.8MB and low res is 1.2MB. He is asking whether I can create something in between the two, say somewhere around 6 to 8 MB.
    Any insight would be much appreciated.
    Many thanks,
    Tania

    PDFs do not have a resolution. The graphics within do, however..
    Look at the downsampling settings and experiment until you get what you want.

  • Problems playing DVD's burned with Encore 2.0...

    About 4 months ago, I burned a 4-DVD set for a client of mine... I authored them all in Encore 2.0 and everyone was happy with it (or so I thought)... But today I got a call from them and they said that their end-users are having trouble playing them in set-top boxes and that they either don't play and/or kick out at the 20-minute mark.
    I have watched these all the way through on both my computer AND my set-top box (although my DVD is pretty new and plays everything - including .divx files on a CD-R, etc...) I asked him to look into it, get more details and get back to me. However in the meantime I would like to somehow verify that these are indeed error-free dvd's. By the way, they started duping on DVD+R and switched to DVD-R at some point (even though I told them DVD-R for highest compatibility to begin with), but they are having problems with both...
    My main question is this:
    Is there a program available that will run a test on a DVD's file structure, etc and verify it's a good clean "compatible" DVD?
    I do realize that older player especially will not play some "burned " DVD's, etc... But I want to verify the problem is not on my end. I do not see a way that Encore would make a non-compliant disc... Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    -BChil

    So, AC3 is compatible with older players and even smaller. Great, I did not realize that. If I have to re-author I will certainly do that.
    Luckily I still have the finished AVI files and the Encore project files. But I most likely erased the whole DVD project folder. Is there any way to re-call the DVD project with only the .ncor file? I know I have tried in the past and have not been able to. I would like these new DVD's to have the same exact look as the previously authored ones...
    Now that I think about it, I never set anything. I exported to AVI's and let Encore maximize the bit rates to fit it all on a 4.7 gig DVD-R. (i authored 9 hours of footage to 4 DVD's with - one was over 2 hours long - this was against my recommendation by the way...) I haven't used Encore since September so am a little rusty. Where do I set the guidelines for the auto maximize option? (i.e. I still want to maximize the DVD but using .AC3 for audio and limit maximum bitrate to 7000 kbps...)
    Thanks!

  • Problems Creating Slideshow DVD using PSE 8.0

    I have created a slideshow DVD in the past without problems. I have recently created a new slideshow of photos along with audio. It previews just fine in both PSE and Windows Movie Maker, but after I burned the DVD, only one song plays back when the DVD is in the TV.
    Any suggestions?

    Unless you have the combine programs Photoshop Elements & Premier Elements; there are limitations.
    If you have other software; it’s possible to combine multiple tracks or play lists ant then attach them as a single file in the slideshow editor.
     

  • Dvds made with encore cs5 not using full 4.65gb as cs4 did

    The majority of my video work consists of burning DVDs of event videos that are longer than two hours. I edit the video, dynamic link over to Premiere, add a second time line with a 10 second logo video and render the DVD. And since the begining of time with CS3, these DVD images always come out to be 4.65/4.66 gb (according to OS X). Now, with CS5, changing absolutely nothing--exact same workflow--Encore is only using 4.21 gb of space. The disc info section of the build pane lists around 450mb of free space (on the particular project I'm looking at right now).
    This is a significant amount of wasted space and is unacceptable. Why is this happening?

    I was finally able to talk to someone from Adobe and they tell me that this is the expected behavior, that supposedly not all DVDs are manufactured at the correct size and this extra space is to prevent problems. Should that even be true (aren't DVD's a standard?? If it says there's 4.7gb on it doesn't than mean there's 4.7gb??) this is a STUPID decision for the following reasons:
    * It doesn't show this 500mb extra space until after you render your items. Before that time, it shows all the disc space being used--1 or 2 megs free and no more
    * If this is necessary then make the default disc image size 4.2gb and add it to the drop-down list of sizes. Then I can pick 4.7 if I want it.
    * It doesn't even always leave 500mb. Sometimes, completely unexplicably--I'd say 10% of the time, it uses the full amount of space...like it's done since Encore v1.0. So if I manually change the disc size to 5.2 in order to get the right size image, I sometimes find that nope, Encore isn't drunk today, and I now have a 5.2gb disc image and have to start over.
    It seems like every time I update my software w/ the promise of things speeding up my workflow (and other things in CS5 have), something like this pops up to F it all up and I resign myself to thinking well, I guess Adobe will fix this one day...and call it CS6 and charge me another $700 for it.

  • Problems creating a dvd on premeire elements 9.

    It won't create a disc menu and cuts the movie short no matter what I do, it won't include all videos.  I do not have autoplay selected anywhere that I can see.  Why is it cutting 30 minutes of my video as well?

    rtischler
    Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 on Windows XP 32 bit
    Do not give up. Let us see what we can do to get your project moving forward if possible. Several important consideration.
    1. Computer resources and a large project.
    Your Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 is only a 32 bit application running in a 32 bit computer environment and as such has all the limitations of 32 bit system, namely maximum supported installed RAM = 4 GB of which typically 3.2 to 3.0 or less of that are available. You have a 2 hour plus which is maxing out the capacity of the disc. You have a lot of menu pages (1 main menu and 7 scene menu pages). The location of your Scratch Disks and how much free hard drive space there might be factoring into all this also.
    2. Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 will allow no more than 25 menu markers on that Timeline. That is the same for Premiere Elements 10 and 11 as well.
    The history of that can be found
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE: Menu Marker Limitation/Implementation Update
    So the number of main menu and scene menu pages will be impacted on how many pages 25 markers fit into.
    But, you are not losing Timeline content in this regard. The Timeline content after 25th marker is there, it just does not have a menu button to access it.
    You pick the 25th scene and then let it play out to the end of the Timeline. If you want less pages put still want 25 menu markers, then pick a menu (or create one) that has more buttons per page designed into it).
    Things to do:
    a. Check the Scratch Disks (Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disk for location and free hard drive space.
    Check for pile ups in the Adobe Premiere Elements Preview Files Folder, Media Cache Folder.
    Go to Edit Menu/Preferences/Media and hit the Clean button in the Media Cache Database area.
    b. Find a menu or create one with more buttons per page.
    c. In the burn dialog, tell us what you see for Space Required and Bitrate (with check mark next to "Fit Content to Available Space".
    d. Help to focus me in on
    The video cuts out a 1:31:54 no matter what I do, the video I created is 2:04:15.  I also never get a menu no matter what I do, even though it shows a menu in the creation area and when I preview it.
    Do you mean that you play back the Timeline in the Edit area monitor and the playback refused to go beyond the 01:32:54;00 mark?
    or
    Where do you never get a menu...in the DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc that you burn to disc using Share/Disc/DVD disc?
    e. What happens if you make a copy of this project (File Menu/Save A Copy) and then use the copy to delete 1/2 the project? Can you
    now burn that reduced Timeline to DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc with menu without problem?
    Please consider. If you get a far as what is indicated in your screenshot, you should be close to success.
    Thanks.

  • Problem creating NTSC DVD

    dear all,
    I cannot manage to make NTSC DVD with ADOBE ENCORE.
    It all went fine with the PAL version. Then I exported mpeg NTSC from the editing programme, which I added to a ENCORE NTSC new file, I added Wav audio files (which is requiered for NTSC in addition to mpeg), and add subtitles in Uff-8. ENCORE first transcodes the audio files, and then "general error" (errore generale in italian). I do not know what is wrong.
    I tried to do it without subtitles, but error again.
    I deleted the mpeg audio track, and only worked with the Wav. but error again
    I add the wav in audio track 2, and linked all files to the audio track 2. But error again.
    any idea please?
    Thanks and good work!
    matthieutje

    Drop the MPEG Audio.
    It's an optional format in NTSC (and in PAL these days) and not allowed as Audio Stream #1.
    Use Dolby Digital or LPCM as Audio Stream 1 instead.

  • Create previews of video clips with multiple thumbnail and export in html?

    Hi all!
    I am trying to make a list of the videos that i have shot with my digital camera....my 1Tb is almost full, so you can understand that is not that easy as looking into a folder with the big thumbnails
    this is the expectation: to find an app that can
    -create a preview of each video (qt, mov, m4v, wmv, avi, rm, etc)
    -create few frames that shows the content of the video
    -export the list of movies as web page, with the title of the video and the snapshot for each of them
    Do you know if there is any way to achieve this result, without making manually everything?
    I've found a software on pc, that i can use with parallels, but it takes just 1 shot of the video, and not multiple, with the result that is hard to get what is in the video, especially when the video is 10-15 min long, and the name doesn't help to recall what was happening in that video
    Is there a way to achieve these results with just the apps available on the OS or is there an external sofware to do that?
    thanks!

    This is how i resolved:
    I use a software called screen grabber, that reads video files and makes a sheet with previews
    then i use thumbsplus on parallels to load these sheets and create an html page with the sheets and thumbnails.
    Takes some time, is kinda cumbersome, but this gives me nice html pages with previews taht ar clickable (so you can see the full size sheet with the video preview).
    Maybe someone else will stumble on the same problem that i had and find something better than my solution
